** INDIVIDUAL DETACHED DORMER STYLE HOME ** APPROXIMATELY 1650 SQ FT ** PLOT APPROACHING HALF AN ACRE ** 4 BEDROOMS ** GROUND FLOOR ACCOMMODATION ** CONSIDERABLE PARKING & GARAGE ** HEART OF THE VILLAGE LOCATION ** FURTHER POTENTIAL, SUBJECT TO CONSENT ** OUTDOOR SWIMMING POOL ** NO UPWARD CHAIN **
A really exciting opportunity to purchase an individual detached dormer style home which predominantly offers single storey accommodation extending to around 1650 sq ft and occupying a substantial plot lying in the region of 0.49 of an acre.
The property is set back in a secluded position well away from the High Street with considerable scope to extend and reconfigure the dwelling, subject to any necessary consents.
The property is understood to have been originally constructed in the 1970s by a local architect to his own design, offering potentially up to four bedrooms one of which is a substantial double situated to the first floor.
The accommodation is predominantly laid out to the ground floor and offers an initial entrance vestibule leading into a central hallway, spacious living/dining room, kitchen and utility off, three ground floor bedrooms and bathroom, with additional double bedroom to the first floor.
The property although requiring modernisation appears to have been reasonably well maintained and would provide an excellent blank canvas for those wishing to place their own mark on a home, especially making use of its fantastic generous plot.
The gardens run to all sides and there is an excellent level of off road parking with gated driveway and garage. The garden also encompasses an outdoor swimming pool. In addition a small grassed area which lies outside the main perimeter, approximately 128 sq m, provides additional outdoor space.
The property could well appeal to a wide audience, particularly those looking for a dwelling with additional potential, possibly those with a higher budget looking to extend and reconfigure the property making use of its superb and well proportioned outdoor space, which could offer additional potential, subject to consent.
The property is offered to the market with no upward chain and viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
